As mentioned on my about me page, I spent a lot of 2008 helping to build up a community on the “Podcast Lounge” forum of CNET UK. In the process, I’ve even made it on to their news pages a few times:

• Best of the forums this week: Steve Jobs to retire?
• Kohjinsha SX: Netbook in integrated DVD drive shocker
• Best of the forums this week: Why Earth hasn’t imploded

Well, on their latest podcast, episode 117, reviewing 2008, I am proud to say I was given an honourable mention by Nick Hide for one my longest running forum threads, “Tip of the day“. After which Nate Lanxon gave this website a plug and Kate Macefield said I was a nice guy too.

So thanks to everyone at CNET UK, it’s been fun doing my bit on the forum and here’s to 2009!

Now, without further ado, you can listen to an except of the podcast via this snazzy player I’ve just installed (if you want to go download the full podcast, this is from about 27:28 into the audio).
